just for the record I am a "she". I tried to set up a profile for my SETI account but keep getting the page can't be displayed screen. I posted in
the help forum on the SETI site to find out why, and someone replied saying that it's been happening for a while now and that SETI are consentrating
their efforts on BOINC and this is why some areas of the site aren't working, which I think is a shame.It would have been nice if all of our team
members could have had a profile by their name, if only to say what they are hoping to gain from running SETI@home.

Thanx for the info pantha!!

I set my profile up (but updated it) more or less when I first had my account.

It is frustrating, at times, when people *don't* have profiles, as it would be nice to know something about them. One of the *really* strange things,
however, are the members on the ATS S@h team stats board who *don't* even have "names" attached to their accounts eg

Yes I'd noticed those members without names to their accounts. I suppose the only fair way that we could give out points to members is if they make
themselves known on the identifying who's who thread. Those without nicknames should be able to create a name within their account, I assume, if they
want to take advantage of the points for units rewards.
If there is some reason that they couldn't then I suppose that a screen shot of their details in their screen saver would be proof of who they are
and their progress up the board would just have to be tracked. Perhaps these nameless members just wish to remain anonymous and wouldn't want points
anyway?
